Lovers & [then] Friends?

Don't let the title disturb you lol ain't nothing going on over here but the rent!  However, I do have a few questions:

HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE FRIENDS WITH EXES?

How does it work successfully?

The basics:
1 person decides you two not compatible anymore or 1 isn't ready for a relationship....
Or Both of you decide the relationship isn't working either way....

The bomb is dropped "Can we be friends"

All I really want to know is what to do when:

1) You (or they) want to hang-out BUT you're (they're) hanging out with someone else?
2) When you (or they) start dating someone else?
3) Deep down you still love them BUT essentially they've rejected your love.... how do you get over that?
4) How do you go from Lovers to Friends?
5) Is there a natural time-frame for this? After 3 weeks, 3 months, 3 years? When is it ok to be able to look at them as a "friend"?

I just foresee awkward on top of awkward on top of awkward moments that I feel would be best if avoided .... but maybe that's just me- What ya'll think? (for real, someone give me answers)
